To  Hon.  George  C.  Pardee,  Governor  of  the  State  of  Cali- 
fornia, and  the  Honorable  Board  of  Trustees  of  the  State 
Mining  Bureau. 

Gentlemen  :  I  have  the  honor  to  transmit  Bulletin  No.  30, 
''A  Bibliography  Relating  to  the  Geology,  Palaeontology,  and 
Mineral  Resources  of  California,"  this  being  the  second  edi- 
tion, which  has  been  revised  and  brought  up  to  date  by  the 
author  of  both  editions,  Lieut.  Col.  A.  W.  Vogdes,  Artillery 
Corps,  U.  S.  A. 

I  wish  to  extend  many  thanks  to  Colonel  Vogdes  for  his  kind 
assistance  to  this  department  in  donating  this  work,  which 
will  prove  invaluable  to  the  seeker  for  information  pertaining 
to  the  literature  which  has  been  published  relating  to  the  sub- 
jects above  enumerated. 

Very  respectfully,

Dear  Sir  :  I  have  the  honor  to  submit  this  bibliography  for 
publication  by  the  State  Mining  Bureau,  with  the  following 
remarks : 

Since  the  publications  of  the  first  Geological  Survey  of  the 
State,  in  1851,  by  Dr.  Trask,  a  large  number  of  papers  on 
geology,  mineral  resources,  palaeontology,  and  descriptions  of 
local  mining  regions  have  appeared  in  special  publications  or 
in  the  transactions  of  learned  societies.  Besides  these  there 
are  many  articles  incorporated  in  the  official  publications  of 
the  UnitecJ  States,  etc.,  etc.  I  have  labored  to  bring  this  mass 
of  literature  together  and  make  it  accessible  to  the  student  and 


Letters  of  Transmittal. 


general  reader  by  giving  not  only  a  catalogue  of  the  books  and 
maps,  but  also  a  general  idea  of  their  contents.  As  the  palae- 
ontologist has  to  deal  with  the  species  described  under  each 
genus  I  have  included  a  full  list  of  fossils,  which  will  save  the 
student  many  a  weary  hour  of  laborious  research  through 
many  volumes. 

The  catalogue  has  been  arranged  under  different  heads, 
giving  the  student  a  direct  reference  to  the  contents  of  dif- 
ferent publications.     Following  is  the  arrangement: 

Part  I.     Publications  of  the  State  of  California. 

Part  II.     Publications  of  the  United  States  Government. 

Part  III.     Publications  of  Scientific  Societies. 

Part  IV.  Publications  of  State  Geological  Surveys  other 
than  that  of  California. 

Part  V.  Miscellaneous  Publications.  Manj'  of  them  are 
references  to  early  reports  on  gold  and  other  minerals,  in- 
cluding trips  to  the  gold  fields  of  California.  All  of  these 
books  contain  references  to  mines  and  local  geology. 

Part  VI.  A  list  of  the  published  maps  of  California.  This 
will  be  found  useful  to  all  citizens  of  the  State.

Palaeontology,  vol.  2.  Cretaceous  and  Tertiary  fossils ;  by  W. 
M.  Gabb.  Philadelphia,  1869.  xiv  and  299  pp.,  with  36 
plates. 

Section  I,  Part  I,  was  issued  in  February,  1866 ;  the  remainder 
of  this  volume  was  printed  in  December,  1868.  In  the  preface  Prof. 
J.  D.  Whitney  divides  the  Cretaceous  as  follows  : 

1.  The  Tejox  Group,  most  extensively  developed  in  the  vicinity 
of  Fort  Tejon  and  about  Martinez ;  from  the  latter  locality  it  forms 
an  almost  continuous  belt  in  the  coast  ranges  to  Marsh's,  15  miles 
east  of  Mount  Diablo,  where  it  sinks  under  the  San  Joaquin  plain. 

2.  The  Martinez  Group,  found  at  Martinez  and  on  the  northern 
flank  of  Mount  Diablo. 

3.  The  Chico  Group,  an  extensive  member  of  the  Pacific  Coast 
Cretaceous ;  it  is  represented  in  Shasta  and  Butte  counties  and  in 
the  foothills  of  the  Sierra  Nevada  as  far  south  as  Folsom,  also  in 
the  coast  ranges  bordering  Sacramento  Valley  at  Martinez,  and  in 
Orestimba  canyon,  Stanislaus  County. 

4.  The  Shasta  Group,  a  provisional  name  to  include  all  below 
the  Chico  Group.

The  history  of  copper  mining  in  California  extends  to  an  early 
date.  Old  records  of  1840  mention  the  existence  of  copper  in  Sole- 
dad  canyon,  Los  Angeles  County,  and  in  1854  deposits  of  the  mineral 
were  discovered  by  a  Frenchman  named  Maris,  which  were  subse- 
quently worked. 

A  small  deposit  of  rich  copper  ore  was  discovered  in  Hope  Valley, 
Alpine  County,  in  1855. 

State  Geologist  Dr.  J.  B.  Trask  discovered  copper  ore  in  nearly 
every  county  in  the  State  during  his  term  of  office,  extending  from 
1851  to  1854,  but  his  discoveries  received  no  attention.  In  fact, 
the   first  practical   step   toward    the    development    of    the    copper

resources  of  the  State  was  by  Hiram  Hughes,  the  discoverer  of  the 
Napoleon  mine,  in  Calaveras  County,  although  the  presence  was 
known  in  1859  or  earlier  of  rich  deposits  on  the  Pit  and  McCloud 
rivers,  and  copper  ore  yielding  70  per  cent  of  the  pure  metal  was 
extracted  from  a  vein  in  El  Dorado  County. 

They  made  no  impression  favorable  to  California  as  a  copper- 
producing  field.  Hiram  Hughes's  discovery  in  1860  had,  however, 
a  marked  effect  upon  mining  development.  Hughes  found  that  the 
gossan  cap  of  what  became  Quail  Hill  No.  1  mine  was  rich  in  gold, 
and  he  began  working  it  for  that  metal.  Soon  after  he  found  the 
gossan  of  what  later  became  known  as  the  Napoleon  mine,  but 
finding  no  gold  in  it  he  sent  ore  to  San  Francisco  to  be  assayed.  The 
report  showed  that  it  contained  30  per  cent  copper  worth  $120  per 
ton.  This  report  started  a  copper  excitement  in  that  locality.  Soon 
afterward  the  Copperopolis  lode  was  found  a  few  miles  west  of  the 
Napoleon. 

During  that  era  of  activity  in  California  copper  mining,  Calaveras 
County  was  the  chief  scene  of  operations.  Thousands  of  tons  of 
rich  copper  ores  were  shipped  abroad  to  be  smelted.  The  greatest 
depth  reached  was  in  the  Union  mine,  the  lower  levels  being  600 
feet  below  the  outcroppings.  But  the  ore  degenerated  with  depth, 
and  prices  in  the  copper  market  falling  caused  the  final  suspension 
of  operations  in  1868. 

According  to  Professor  Thomas  Price,  Del  Norte  County  ranked 
second  to  Calaveras  in  the  production  of  copper  ore  during  the 
period  extending  from  1862  to  1865.  The  copper  belt  in  that 
county  extends  north  and  south  for  a  distance  of  ten  miles. 

Some  high-grade  carbonates  and  oxides  were  also  shipped  then 
from  the  Zinc  House  mine,  near  Empire  Ranch,  Nevada  County,  and 
small  quantities  from  Colusa  County. 

In  1862,  copper  was  discovered  and  mined  at  Copper  City,  Shasta 
County ;  but  it  carried  only  8  per  cent  copper.  Subsequent  assays 
showed  that  it  carried  .$40  per  ton  in  gold  and  $20  in  silver,  and  it 
was  shipped  to  Swansea  to  be  smelted.  This  is  the  vein  on  which 
the  Bully  Hill  mines  are  now  located.  As  all  California  copper 
deposits  carry  silver  and  gold  and  other  by-products  they  are  all  the 
more  valuable  to  mine. 

Colusa,  Plumas,  Mariposa,  Fresno,  and  Santa  Cruz  counties 
shipped  some  copper  to  market  in  the  sixties.  Prospects  obtained 
in  Mariposa  and  Fresno  counties  indicated  that  Tuolumne,  Mari- 
posa, Madera,  Stanislaus,  Fresno,  and  Tulare  counties  would  become 
large  producers  of  copper. 

The  first  smelting  works  was  a  small  reverberatory  furnace  of  10 
tons  per  day  capacity  at  Antioch,  Contra  Costa  County,  in  1863. 
The  lignite  produced  at  the  Mount  Diablo  mines  was  used  as  fuel. 

From  1868  until  1895,  the  copper  industry  of  California  was 
practically  dead.  In  the  latter  year,  the  new  era  of  activity  set  in 
with  the  purchase  and  opening  of  the  mines  of  the  Mountain  Copper 
Company  of  Shasta. 

From  1860  to  1874  inclusive  the  total  copper  exports  amounted  to 
96,674  tons,  valued  at  $7,439,080.  From  1895  to  1900  inclusive 
the    total     value    of      the     Shasta    copper    output     amounted      co

A  study  of  the  map  which  Mr.  Anbury  includes  shows  a  con- 
tinuous belt  in  the  Sierra  foothill  country  following  a  well-defined 
course  from  the  southern  border  of  Butte  County  to  Riverside — a 
distance  of  about  400  miles.  A  northern  extension  of  this  belt 
diverts  somewhat  to  the  northeast  and  traverses  Sierra,  Plumas, 
and  Lassen  counties.  Then  an  outer  copper  belt  extends  in  an 
almost  continuous  line  from  San  Francisco  Bay  to  the  Oregon 
boundary  line  in  Del  Norte  County. 

The  three  principal  mineral  products  of  California  last  year  were 
gold,  copper,  and  petroleum.

1842.      (Senate  Doc.  243,  27th  Cong.,  3d  sess.,  1842.) 

The  report  contains  a  few  geological  notes  of  California,  and  a 
description  of  the  fossils,  by  James  Hall.  The  specimens  described 
are  all  from  Muddy  Creek,  Wyoming. 

This  report  contains  a  reprint  of  the  expedition  of  1842,  and  the 
accompanying  map  exhibits  the  routes  followed  during  the  years 
1843  and  1845.  The  map  is  on  a  scale  of  32  miles  to  1  inch,  and 
was  drawn  by  Charles  Preuss,  whose  skill  in  sketching  topography 
in  the  field  and  in  representing  it  on  the  map  has  probably  never 
been  surpassed.  The  map  may  serve  for  a  model.  The  profile  was 
made  from  barometrical  observations  drawn  with  a  horizontal  scale 
of  47.35  miles  to  the  inch,  and  a  vertical  scale  of  8,500  feet  to  the 
inch.

The  author  discusses  the  age  of  the  formation  afterward  called  by 
the  California  geologists  the  Chico  group.  Newberry  admits  the 
Tertiary  character  of  a  part  of  the  fossils,  but  is  inclined  to  refer 
the  formation  to  the  Cretaceous,  because  of  the  presence  in  it  of 
Ammonites,  etc.

Pacific  Railroad  Reports,  vol.  7.  Report  on  the  Palaeontology 
of  the  survey;  by  T.  A.  Conrad.  Chapter  XXIX,  pp. 
189-196,  with  10  pi. 

The  author  remarks  that  the  Miocene  of  Santa  Barbara  contains 
a  group  of  shells  more  analogous  to  the  fossils  of  the  Atlantic  slope 
than  to  the  existing  shells  of  California ;  but  it  is  evident  that  there 
must  be  subdivisions  in  the  Tertiary  deposits  of  California,  which 
range  between  the  Eocene  and  Pliocene  periods,  for  the  group  of  the 
Estrella  Valley  and  Santa  Ynez  (Barbara)  Mountains  does  not 
appear  to  contain  one  species,  even,  analogous  to  any  in  the  Santa 
Barbara  beds,  and,  on  the  contrary,  some  of  them  remind  us  of  the 
existing  Pacific  fauna. 

The  author  describes  and  figures  the  following  new  species : 

From  Santa  Margarita,  Salinas  Valley :    Hinnetes  crassa. 

From  San  Rafael  Hills  and  Santa  Barbara  County :  Pecten

MAPS    AND   ATIiASES. 

Topographic  map  of  the  United  States. 

The  map  is  published  in  atlas  sheets,  each  sheet  representing  a 
small  quadrangular  district.  The  mapped  areas  are  widely  scattered, 
nearly  every  State  being  represented.  About  1,100  sheets  have 
been  engraved  and  printed.  The  maps  of  California  are  catalogued 
in  Part  VI  of  this  Bibliography. 

The  map  sheets  represent  a  great  variety  of  topographic  features, 
and  with  the  aid  of  descriptive  text  they  can  be  used  to  illustrate 
topographic  forms.     The  first  three  folios  have  been  issued,  viz. : 

1.  Physiographic  types,  by  Henry  Gannett.  1898.  Folio.  Four 
pages  of  descriptive  text  and  the  following  topographic  sheets  :  Fargo

Geologic  atlas  of  the  United  States. 

The  Geologic  Atlas  of  the  United  States  is  the  final  form  of  pub- 
lication of  the  topographic  and  geologic  maps.  The  atlas  is  issued 
in  parts.  Under  the  plan  adopted  the  entire  area  of  the  country  is 
divided  into  small  rectangular  districts  (designated  quadrangles), 
bounded  by  certain  meridians  and  parallels.  Each  folio  contains 
topographic,  geologic,  economic,  and  structural  maps,  together  with 
textual  descriptions  and  explanations,  and  is  designated  by  the  name 
of  a  principal  town  or  of  a  prominent  natural  feature  within  the 
district.

The  author  remarks  that  Mr.  Gabb  makes  two  divisions  of  his 
Cretaceous  strata,  A  and  B.  The  former  is,  doubtless.  Cretaceous ; 
and  the  latter,  I  am  sure,  will  prove  to  be  older  Eocene.  Fusus

Californica."  Volutilithes  Navarroensu  belongs  to  "my  genus  Ros- 
tcUitffi."  Fusus  Remondi  is  a  species  of  Perissolax  allied  to  P. 
penita.  Anfauropsis  alveata  is  a  species  of  Glohularia.  Fisctis  ma- 
millatus  is  probably  ^ycoiypus  modcstus,  Conrad.  Perissolax  is  a 
genus  nearly  related  to  Sycoti/pus.  Chcmnitzia  Spillmani  is  very 
distinct  from  any  species  1  described  under  that  name.  Aiuria 
Mathcivsoni  is  Aturia  .:ic-zac.  hosinUi  cicnttd  is  no.siiicopsis  alta. 
D.  Vvasana  is  Diouv  orafa.  lioixors.  Mcckia  .sella  is  ])robably 
Cyprina  bisccta.  M.  iiaris  is  a  sjx'cies  of  Yoldia.  Mactra  Ash- 
burneri  is  probably  J7.  (illxirin.  Conrad.  Xucula  truncata — two

Reply  to  ]\Ir.  Conrad's  criticism  on  Mr.  Gabb's  report  on  the

nia ;  by  T.  A.  Conrad.  Am.  Jour.  Conch.,  vol.  2,  1866,  pp. 
97-100. 

The  author  remarks  that  Volutilithes  IVavarroeusis  has  the  ex- 
ternal sculpture  and  form  of  a  species  of  Rostellites  found  in  New 
Jersey.  Perissolax,  Gabb,  is  limited  to  one  species,  but  it  is  very 
different  from  Busy  con  Blakci,  Conrad.  Hemifusus  Horiii,  H. 
Cooperi,  and  H.  Remondi,  Gabb,  and  Fusus  mamillatus,  Gabb,  are 
members  of  my  proposed  genus  Ficopsis.  Amauropsis  alveata,  Gabb, 
is  a  member  of  Lamarck's  genus  Ampullina.  Venericardia  Horni, 
Gabb,  is  a  very  different  variety  from  the  F.  planicosta.  Hamites 
Vancouverensis  I  believe  to  be  an  Ancyloceras.  Ptyeoceras  aequicos- 
tatus  is  more  likely  to  be  Hamites.  Neptunea  curvirostris  I  believe 
to  represent  an  unaescribed  genus. 

The  controversy  which,  for  a  long  time,  was  maintained  between 
Conrad  and  Gabb  as  to  the  age  of  the  Tejon  rocks  of  California, 
referred  by  Conrad  to  the  Eocene  and  by  Gabb  to  represent  the 
uppermost  member  of  the  Cretaceous  (Division  B  of  the  California 
Reports),  can  be  found  in  the  following  papers: 

Conrad.  Am.  Jour,  of  Conchology,  vol.  1  (1805),  pp.  302-5;  vol.

cover the  evidence  of  such  a  change  of  opinion  in  any  of  that

In  the  author's  article,  "Notes  on  American  Geology,"  in  this  jour- 
nal, the  author  remarks :  "On  the  coast  of  California  ]Mr.  Nuttall 
found  shells  of  recent  species  two  hundred  feet  above  the  sea.  These 
are  so  much  more  remote  from  the  axis  of  elevation  than  the  Ter- 
tiary shells  of  New  York  that  the  uplift  of  the  Rocky  ^Mountains 
must  have  been  far  greater  during  the  upper  Tertiary  period  than 
was  any  part  of  the  Atlantic  chain."

Age  of  the  auriferous  slates  of  the  Sierra  Nevada;  by  James 
P.  Smith.  Bull.  Geol.  Soc.  of  America,  vol.  5,  pp.  243- 
258.     February  27,  1894. 

Conclusions  that  the  auriferous  slates  consist  of  Silurian,  Car- 
boniferous, Triassic,  and  Jurassic  strata.  The  Mariposa  slates  are 
Upper  Jurassic.

The  author  places  the  relative  age  of  the  rocks  of  California,  in 
different  localities,  as  follows  : 

Trias — American  and  Sailor  canj'ons. 

Lower  Jura — Inyo  County,  Cal. ;    Taylorville,  Cal. 

Middle  Jura — Taylorville,  Cal. 

Upper  Jura — Taylorville,  Cal. ;  Mariposa  Basin,  Cal. ;  Colfax 
Basin,  Cal. 

The  following  new  species  of  fossils  are  described,  but  not  figured : 

From  American  Canyon :    Jlonotis  semplicata ;   M.  symmetrica. 

From  Sailor  Canyon:  Daonellaf  suhjecta;  D.  hochiformis;  D. 
cardinoides;  Hemientolittm?  sp.?;  Panopea?  sp.?;  Entolium  sp.?; 
Chryphaea  sp.?

The  Shasta-Chico  series;  by  J.  S.  Diller  and  T.  W.  Stanton. 
Bull.  Geol.  Soc.  of  America,  vol.  5,  pp.  435-464.  April  12, 
1894. 

The  authors  give  the  following  conclusions  :  That  the  discovery  of 
Coralliochama  Orcutti,  in  the  basal  portion  of  the  Chico  beds,  in 
the  Sacramento  Valley,  demonstrates  that  the  Wallala  beds  are  only 
a  phase  of  the  Chico.  The  Shasta-Chico  series  is  composed  of  the 
Knoxville,  Horsetown,  and  Chico  beds,  which  are  each  characterized 
by  its  own  fauna.  The  fauna  of  adjacent  beds,  however,  are  so 
bound  together  by  many  common  species  that  there  is  no  paloeon- 
tologic  break.  The  Mariposa  and  Knoxville  beds  are  faunally  dis- 
tinct and  unconformable ;  the  former  Jurassic,  and  the  latter  Cre- 
taceous.

and  San  Bernardino  counties,  in  the  southwestern  portion  of  the 
State.  He  gives  the  localities  of  the  lead  deposits  of  San  Bernardino 
County,  near  Kingston  Mountain,  in  dolomitic  limestone ;  near 
Denby,  in  the  Old  Woman  Mountains.  He  mentions  a  large  and 
extensive  ledge  of  carbonate  and  galena  in  granite  and  slate  forma- 
tions. Other  localities  are  mentioned,  both  in  Inyo  and  San  Ber-

Beechey,  Capt.  F.  W.     Narrative  of  a  voyage,  etc. 

A  map  of  the  headland,  embracing  San  Francisco  Bay,  accom- 
panies this  report.  This  is  colored  around  the  shores  so  as  to  indi- 
cate the  several  formations ;  serpentine,  sandstone,  and  jasper  rock 
are  represented.  Lieutenant  Belcher  collected  specimens  of  serpen- 
tine on  the  west  side  of  Angel  Island.  The  occurrence  of  jasper 
rock  is  also  noted. 

The  author,  on  page  174,  gives  the  following  account  of  the 
geology  of  California,  which  was  the  first  ever  published ;  it  is  given 
in  full,  on  account  of  its  value : 

GEOLOGY,    BAY    OF    SAN    FRANCISCO. 

"The  specimens  collected  in  and  near  the  Bay  of  San  Francisco 
consist  of  many  varieties  of  common  serpentine,  bronzite,  and  as- 
bestos ;  clay-slate  and  mica  slate,  chlorite  slate,  horn-stone,  brown, 
green,  and  red  jasper,  and  rolled  blocks  of  glassy  actynolite ;  grey 
sandstone,  and  imperfect  wood-coal.  The  country  near  the  port  of 
San  Francisco  is  composed  chiefly  of  sandstone,  jasper,  and  serpen- 
tine. Wood-coal  is  found  in  slight  seams  on  the  north  side  of  the 
entrance  of  the  bay,  and  native  salt  near  Santa  Clara.  Many  of 
the  summits  of  the  hills  are  composed  of  jasper,  forming  elongated 
ridges,  of  which  the  general  direction  is  north  and  south.  This 
jasper  is  succeeded  by  sandstone,  of  a  loose  texture,  not  effervescing 
with  acids,  and  disposed  in  every  angle  of  stratification,  occasionally 
it  is  hard  and  of  a  blue  cast ;  it  is  frequently  interrupted  by  abrupt 
masses  of  laminated  jasper  in  wavy  stratification.  The  appear- 
ance of  the  jasper,  at  its  contact  with  the  sandstone,  is  often  very 
remarkable.  The  jasper  appears  not  to  have  acted  on  or  displaced 
the  sandstone ;  its  exterior,  for  eighteen  inches  or  two  feet,  is 
usually  rugged,  and  mixed  with  carbonate  of  lime,  quartz,  and 
indurated  clay ;  its  interior,  however,  presents  a  very  beautiful 
wavy  disposition  of  the  component  laminae,  a  remarkable  example 
of  which  occurs  at  the  Needle  Rock,  nearly  opposite  the  fort.  A 
view  of  it  is  engraved  at  PI.  Ill,  Geology.  It  resembles  an  immense 
mass  of  sheets  of  paper,  or  bands  of  list,  crumpled  and  contorted 
by  lateral  pressure.  This  contortion  only  occurs  in  the  red  jasper, 
the  yellow  being  seldom  (if  at  all)  stratified,  but  generally  sep- 
arated by  cracks  into  rhomboidal  pieces.  A  mass  of  at  least  one 
hundred  feet  in  thickness  is  beautifully  stratified  in  short,  wavy 
lines,  opposite  the  fort  near  Punta  Diavolo,  and  rests  on  sandstone. 

"Between  Punta  Boneta  and  Punta  Diavolo  the  sandstone  is  of 
a  bluish-grey  colour,  containing  particles  of  coal. 

"The  Island  of  Los  Angelos  is  of  very  confused  formation.  Its 
eastern  side  is  sandstone,  with  occasional  jasper  rocks ;  its  western 
side  exhibits  sandstone,  conglomerate,  clay -slate,  and  serpentine ; 
its  south  side,  bluish  earth,  (apparently  decomposed  serpentine), 
and  jasper  beds  containing  red  siliceous  nodules,  and  much  iron 
pyrites.  The  superstratum  of  this  island  is  almost  entirely  com- 
posed of  the  debris  of  sandstone  and  jasper  rocks,  a  little  slate  and 
bluish  earth,  and  betrays  appearances  of  violence.  It  is  about  900 
feet  above  the  level  of  the  sea. — B.

"The  cliffs  of  the  main  land,  opposite  the  northwest  shore  of  the 
Island  of  Los  Angelos  afford  masses  of  actynolite  and  beds  of  mica 
slate  and  talc  slate. 

"The  Island  of  Molate,  about  four  miles  north  of  Los  Angelos, 
appears  at  a  distance  to  be  of  a  red  colour,  and  contains  much  red 
jasper,  and  in  a  small  portion  of  the  cliff  black  ferruginous 
slate.— C. 

"In  the  Island  of  Yerba  Buena,  the  perpendicular  cliffs  west  of 
the  bay  are  formed  of  clay-slate  at  their  base,  whilst  the  superin- 
cumbent rock  is  sandstone,  for  the  most  part  in  angular  masses, 
and  without  distinct  stratification.  The  clay-slate  is  much  con- 
torted, arched,  and  wavy,  assuming  an  east  and  west  direction,  and 
dipping  chiefly  to  the  south  at  a  considerable  angle.  The  sand- 
stone shows  itself  in  the  point  that  forms  the  eastern  part  of  the 
bay. 

"The  rounded  hills  of  the  peninsula  on  which  the  Presidio  of  San 
Francisco  is  placed,  are  variously  formed  of  sandstone,  loose  sand, 
serpentine,  flinty  slate,  and  jasper.  The  westernmost  hill,  which 
rises  from  the  sea  between  the  fort  and  the  Punta  di  los  Lobos,  is 
serpentine.  The  north  declivity,  on  which  the  quadrangle  of  the 
Presidio  is  built,  is  sandstone.  To  the  eastward  of  this  the  serpen- 
tine again  forms  a  hill  of  equal  if  not  greater  height.  The  hill  to 
the  westward  of  the  Mission  is  serpentine.  That  which  rises  to 
the  south  of  it  exposes  a  bare  and  scarped  brow  of  flinty  slate  and 
jasper.  Rocks  of  a  similar  nature  protrude  through  the  surface  of 
the  soil  of  the  hills  which  separate  San  Francisco  from  the  exten- 
sive valley  of  Santa  Clara  (Las  Salinas),  about  six  leagues  to  the 
southward.  These  hills  are  called  Sierras  di  los  Sambumos,  and 
terminate  on  the  north  in  a  rocky  prominence,  in  the  harbour  east 
of  the  inlet  of  the  Mission. 

"The  range  of  mountains,  Las  Sierras  del  Sur,  which  bound  the 
above  valley  to  the  south,  expose  flinty  slate  approaching  to  jasper, 
a  little  northwest  of  Las  Pulgas,  and  about  eighteen  miles  east- 
southeast  of  the  Mission  of  San  Francisco.  Between  the  Missions 
of  Santa  Clara  and  Santa  Cruz,  these  mountains  form  four  parallel 
ranges,  the  two  middle  ones  highest  (about  1,500  feet),  with  steep 
declivities ;  the  first  two  valleys  are  narrow ;  the  third  is  more 
extensive,  leading  to  the  fourth  range,  which  is  considerably  lower 
than  the  others.  The  first  two  ridges  are  composed  of  serpentine 
and  a  jaspery  rock,  the  third  principally  of  sandstone  and  occa- 
sionally jasper,  and  the  fourth,  that  nearest  Santa  Cruz,  entirely 
of  sandstone,  the  upper  part  being  mostly  decomposed  into  loose 
sand.  Petrified  bones  of  a  cylindrical  form  were  found  in  this  cliff 
of  sand  or  loose  sandstone  in  1827. 

"Where  this  range  approaches  the  road  from  Santa  Clara  to  San 
Juan,  nearly  half-way,  the  northern  declivity  is  covered  with  frag- 
ments of  serpentine,  and  a  little  farther  on  is  sandstone  and  flinty 
slate. 

"In  the  neighbourhood  of  the  Mission  of  San  Juan  is  a  sandstone 
conglomerate,  and  on  the  road  crossing  from  San  Juan  to  the  plain 
of  Monterey,  is  sandstone.  From  the  interior  of  the  range  between 
San  Juan  and  Monterey,  the  inhabitants  of  Las  Animas  had  brought

encouraged  the  delusive  hope  of  rich  mines.  A  few  miles  down  the 
river  Paxaros,  from  where  the  road  to  San  Juan  crosses  it,  there 
are  thermal  springs,  and  sulphur  in  their  neighbourhood.  On  the 
Santa  Cruz  side,  near  the  Mission,  there  is  said  to  be  coal,  but  it 
has  never  been  mined.  Along  the  east  shore  of  the  Bay  of  San 
Francisco,  for  thirty-five  miles  east-southeast,  from  beyond  the 
Island  of  Molate,  towards  San  Josef  and  Santa  Clara,  the  harbour 
is  bounded  generally  by  low  alluvial  soil,  and  only  in  a  few^  places 
do  low  and  rocky  cliffs  protrude.  Near  the  Mission  of  San  Josef 
there  are  some  hot  springs  in  the  plain,  surrounded  by  a  verdant 
covering.  Earthquakes  are  rather  common,  and  one  in  1806  so 
shook  the  building  of  the  Mission  of  Santa  Clara,  that  a  new  one 
was  obliged  to  the  erected.  A  few  years  ago,  a  boat  belonging  to 
a  whale  ship,  when  lying  in  several  feet  water,  was  suddenly 
thrown  on  the  beach  and  left  dry,  and  a  vessel  in  the  Bay  of  Mon- 
terey was  suddenly  and  severely  tossed  about  by  the  sea,  and  the 
shock  was  felt  on  the  shore  at  the  same  time.  At  ten  o'clock  on 
the  26th  December,  1827,  a  slight  shock  was  felt  at  San  Josef. 
The  shocks  are  said  to  come  along  the  coast  from  the  northward, 
and  when  they  are  also  felt  at  Monterey  it  is  some  minutes  later. 

"One  was  perceived  at  the  Presidio  of  San  Francisco  in  the 
month  of  April,  1827.  It  continued  a  short  time,  but  the  shaking 
was  so  slight  that  it  injured  nothing. — C."

ter, under  date  of  March  2,  1844,  the  author  states  that  gold  placers 
were  discovered  in  California  last  year,  extending  some  thirty 
leagues.  In  his  second  letter,  under  date  of  September  1,  1844,  the 
writer  states :  "The  mining  interest  in  California  is  of  great  im- 
portance, and  I  have  the  satisfaction  of  assuring  your  Excellency 
that  it  forms  one  of  the  most  valuable  resources  of  this  Department. 
Besides  the  silver  mines  which  are  found,  there  are  various  other 
mines  which  have  actually  yielded  metals ;  the  gold  placer  especially 
is  worthy  of  great  attention,  which  extends  nearly  thirty  leagues, 
was  discovered  lately,  together  with  mines  of  mineral  coal."

This  author  states  (Vol.  1,  p.  489)  that  a  vein  of  gold-bearing 
quartz  was  worked  near  the  Mission  of  San  Fernando  by  M.  Baric 
in  1843. 

According  to  De  Mofras,  the  gold  of  the  San  Francisquito  Rancho 
was  fii*st  explored  by  M.  Charles  Baric.  He  gives  its  distance  in 
Ihe  mountains  as  six  leagues  to  the  northward  of  the  Mission  of 
San  Fernando,  and  fifteen  leagues  from  Los  Angeles.  He  further 
states :  "This  vein  has  an  extent  of  six  leagues,  following  the  direc- 
tion of  the  ravine  where  it  is  situated.  The  gold  is  found  near  the 
surface  of  the  soil,  and  some  pieces  weighed  two  or  three  drachms." 
This  description  would  lead  one  to  the  opinion  that  the  deposit  was 
a  placer  one  and  not  a  vein,  although  he  uses  the  word  filon.

MOFRAS,  DUFLOT  De. 

According  to  De  Mofras,  silver  ores  occur  about  two  leagues 
northwest  of  Cahuenga  Rancho,  and  were  not  worked  for  want  of 
mercury.  He  further  observes  that  the  Indians  often  bring  in 
from  the  mountains,  grains  of  copper,  fragments  of  opal,  and  pieces 
of  galena.  Mines  of  gold  and  silver  are  also  said  to  have  been 
found  about  fourteen  leagues  from  San  Diego.  They  were  once 
worked  by  a  man  from  Guanajuata. 

There  is  a  notice  of  the  bitumen  near  Los  Angeles  on  p.  337, 
vol.  2.  The  author  states  :  "Two  leagues  to  the  southeast  of  Los 
Angeles  there  are  four  great  sources  of  asphaltum,  situated  on  a 
level  with  the  earth  in  a  vast  prairie.  These  springs  open  in  the 
middle  of  little  pools  of  cold  water,  while  the  bitumen  possesses  a 
higher  temperature.  This  water  has  a  mineral  taste,  which,  how- 
ever, does  not  prevent  animalfe  from  drinking  it.  At  sunrise  the 
orifices  of  these  springs  are  covered  by  enormous  bubbles  of  asphal- 
tum, often  being  more  than  a  yard  high,  and  looking  like  soap 
bubbles."

INTRODUCTORY  REMARKS. 


The  world's  history  and  its  civilization  are  closely  propor- 
tional to  the  accurate  mapping  of  the  territory.  In  early  set- 
tlenients  only  rude  diagrams  are  made  to  meet  the  wants  of 
the  time,  but  as  civilization  and  population  increase  a  wider 
knowledge  of  the  geography  and  topography  is  necessary  to 
meet  the  requirements  of  greater  traffic  and  improvements. 
Hence,  the  mapping  of  any  country  is  a  progressive  work. 
As  the  country  becomes  populated  and  political  divisions  are 
made,  detailed  maps  are  required  to  construct  railroads,  geo- 
logical surveys,  wagon  roads,  and  other  improvements,  and 
triangulation  is  extended  over  the  country  to  produce  a  map 
to  meet  these  wants. 

Dr.  J.  C.  Rowell,  of  the  State  University,  made  a  catalogue 
of  the  maps  of  California  in  the  year  1887,  which  Avas  pub- 
lished in  Library  Bulletin  No.  9.  Its  object  was  to  catalogue 
all  the  maps  of  the  State,  including  county  and  other  maps, 
for  which  he  made  an  endless  research  in  the  libraries,  official 
dociunents,  railroad  and  real  estate  offices,  mining  companies, 
etc.  This  added  much  to  our  knowledge  in  making  up  this 
bulletin. 

The  work  is  endless,  and  many  maps  of  the  State  have  not 
been  catalogued.  The  maps  of  early  voyagers  and  overland 
explorers  have  not  been  included,  as  their  enumeration  would 
have  extended  the  list  to  double  its  limits.  Those  of  the 
former  have  been  published  in  the  following:

1,  chap.  1-10.  This  contains  an  extended  account  of  the  pro-

numerous  early  maps.
